Wow, they could just pay me 10 mill and get me...I also can't cross with one foot and don't know how to get past a player. P.S. not the biggest contract in american sports (shaq holds that I think)..but surely the biggest in footie?

More news - The spanish press are saying that he's taking a cut in salary from 7.4M euros per year at madrid to 2.25M euros in LA but that they've renounced all image rights.
They're calculating these rights at just over 30M euros per year, so I suppose that's where the 50M dollars come from.

ah..in that case...nice..I still think he can play at a higher level though. But it would help raise his/hers profile in the states...so I think the missus might have influenced the desicion a bit there.

Chance to start in films with his wee mate Tom (if he's forgiven for missing the wedding  ).

As a liverpool fan im glad to see that he has signed for LA Galaxy after the rumours about him coming to us next season
besides he will only be getting £50 per second for the next five years

Beckham doesn't have Boldie's talent in evaluating hands on the poker hand analysis thread either.
